Life & Legacy

Securing our community’s financial future through endowment building and end-of-lifetime giving.

The Center for Jewish Philanthropy of Greater Phoenix (CJP) is dedicated to securing the future of our Jewish community through the Life & Legacy initiative in partnership with the Harold Grinspoon Foundation. The program provides participating organizations with trainings, mentoring, marketing, and incentive grants to support legacy gift development.

From 2015-2019 our community participated in the four-year Life & Legacy program. During that time, our community secured 753 legacy commitments from 555 donors with an estimated future value of $31.2. Nationally, Life & Legacy has secured over $1.5 billion, from more than 37,890 legacy commitments. The program is in 73 communities in North America.
